All the early description and teases and images of the next Star Wars show, Skeleton Crew, sold it as an Amblin-esque story told in the Star Wars universe. And now that the first trailer for the show is here … that’s pretty much exactly what it looks like. The Goonies in Star Wars.
Does that sound like something you’d like? Then Skeleton Crew will almost certainly be up your alley. The show was co-created by Jon Watts, the director of Marvel‘s Spider-Man trilogy, and it stars Jude Law as the main adult amongst a bunch of adorable child alien types. The lineup of directors for the first season is pretty stellar too; In addition to Watts, you’ve got David Lowery, the Daniels, Jake Schreier, Bryce Dallas Howard and Lee Isaac Chung all helming episode. That is an absolutely stacked lineup of directors for a TV show, much less a Star Wars series.
